Happy 10th Anniversary to this absolute legend, Wondermark #1062; The Terrible Sea Lion

Wondermark by David Malki summon up wondermark.com

A six-panel strip, in black & white.
1st panel: Man and woman riding in some kind of old automobile.
Woman: I don't mind most marine mammals. But SEA LIONS? I could do without sea lions.
Man: Don't say that out loud!

2nd panel: Same scene, but zoomed out. We now see a large sea lion has pulled up behind them. It's not anthropomorphized. It looks like a regular sea lion
Sea Lion: Pardon me, I couldn't help but overhear...
Man: NOW you've done it

3rd panel: same scene, but only showing the sea lion and the woman's annoyed face
Sea Lion: I would like to have a civil conversation about your statement. Would you mind showing me evidence of any negative thing any sea lion has ever done to you?

4th panel: Man and woman at a table, indoors. The sea lion is behind them.
Woman: GO AWAY
Sea Lion: There's no need to raise your voice, I'm right here. I'm just curious if you have any sources to back up your opinion?

5th panel: Woman is in bed, frustrated. Sea lion is beside her bed.
Woman: You're IN my HOUSE
Sea Lion: You made a statement in public for all to hear. Are you unable to defend the statements you make? Or simply unwilling to have a reasoned discussion?

6th panel: Man and woman at the table. Sea lion is behind them again.
Man: TOLD you, dude. SEA LIONS.
Sea Lion: I have been unfailingly polite, and YOU two have been nothing but RUDE.
Woman: I AM TRYING TO EAT BREAKFAST
Sea Lion: Very well. We shall resume in an hour
